Such a great song by Don McLean! It is his tribute to the sad life of the painter Vincent Van Gogh. He suffered from depression & committed suicide. He never saw any success during his life. But now his paintings are worth millions of dollars.

There is a beautiful video featuring Van Gogh’s paintings that give better context to the lyrics.

One of my mother’s favourite songs . You should look up Freddie Starr’s Vincent comedy routine

Vinnie did shoot himself but might have survived if he got treatment but he refused it.
